Beautiful Olanna, from a wealthy family, has never been as bold as her twin sister Kainene, but it was Olanna who decided to leave a life of comfort for love. Moving to a small town where her future husband, a professor at the local university, lived and worked, she hardly realized that she was irrevocably changing her fate. The village boy Ugwu, who entered the service of the professor's house, also did not realize that from now on his life would change irreversibly and unpredictably. Shy young Englishman Richard, who came to Nigeria to write a book, did not intend to stay here forever. And the rebellious and spoiled Kainene hardly thought that she would take on her fragile shoulders the responsibility for the lives of a huge number of people. But the war that had descended on the country was not only shattering people's destinies, it was also changing them, pulling out what in ordinary life was hidden behind the gloss of civility. Olanna, Ugwu, Richard and all the other characters of the novel will have to go through the unthinkable horrors of war, more than once face to face with death and find themselves again after terrible trials.
